Students were classified according their gender, program, development multiple intelligences Howard Gardner theory intelligences. verify effect gender program factors intelligences, Kruskal–Wallis tests performed with α = 0.05. The analysis effects identified significant four intelligences: linguistic interpersonal (for which female obtained higher mean scores) mathematical visual male scores). five mathematical, visual, musical civil score than other programs); kinesthetic computer science lower naturalistic sustainability programs).
